Hello doctor. I have been infected with hepatitis B for 12 years now, every 6 months I have a checkup. I am not taking any medicine yet because the virus is not active yet. So should I use foods that are for sale like hyra liver, big liver...? Thanks for the advice doctor.

Answer
Your case is a chronic hepatitis B virus infection. If there is no indication for medication, you need to be monitored by a specialist every 6 months, in order to detect hepatitis that needs to be treated and screened for early liver cancer. Supplements have not been proven effective for your case.
For more in-depth advice, you can register for an examination at a hospital under the Vinmec health system nationwide. Thank you for submitting your question to Vinmec Health System.
